Yellowstone Journal: W. H. Rue, of
Rosebud, has during the past season made
an unquestioned success of raising Mis-
souri, corn, the genuine article, with ears
as big as mans forearm, and eighteen
rows on each ear. He feels confident that
in all ordinarily moist seasons corn can
be grown here with great profit, as the
yield is enormous and the quality finer
than in the corn states. His crop last year
was only experimental but he is going in
the coming season for something that will
count.

Great Falls Tribune: General Manager
Shelby of the Montana Central returned to
Helena to-day. Mr.. Shelby stated last
evening that his company would be using
Sand Coulee coal for their engines and all
other purposes inside of ten days. Until
such time as the branch road to the mines
is completed, he expects to have the coal
portion of the distance upon
the completion of the bridge. This will
be cheaper than to bring the coal from
Ohio and Pennsylvania, as is now done,
and besides, Mr.. Shelby says, the Sand
Coulee coal is a better steam coal than
that they are now using.

in Turner hall last night to see the fight
between the Denver dog, Tige and Mar

in wooden cage on a platform under the

was let into the cage, and for few min

and cat. but the dog, which weighed
about twice as much as the lynx, finally
got it by the back of the neck and chewed
and squeezed the life out of it. 1t is
good dog, and it was glorious spectacle,
though not quite so interesting as was ex-
pected by many in the audience.
